Favorite and least favorite DTP assignment

5 sentences on each questions - What was your favorite DTP assignment (flyer, can label, menu, magazine cover, event ticket) and why?  What was your least favorite DTP assignment and why?

My favorite DTP project would have to be the can label. I really enjoyed being creative, and design a label for a product in a can, that might exist some day. We got a lot of freedom, and we could use our imagination, and be really creative. A boat in a can might exist in the future, but it is mostly unlikely to happen. But at least we can use our imaginations some.

My least favorite DTP project would have to me the menu. Even though it was fun, and I enjoyed all of the assignments, this one I enjoyed the least. There was a lot of time put into this, and it was hard to fit all of those items on to a sheet of paper without cramming. But I did enjoy being creative with it and making up all of these dishes. Other than some minor things, overall it was an alright project.
